Since the inception of WenOut in 2005, we've stockpiled some of the best outdoor photos from around the region. With the onset of spring, we need to work hard to keep you, ahem, indoors visiting this site... which is why we compiled this beautiful "Picture of the Week" slideshow from our archives.

Mountain Home Ridge, owned by the Chelan-Douglas Land Trust, provides wildlife habitat and open space on the ridge system immediately south of Leavenworth. The property connects to public lands and offers some nice walks and mountain bike rides.
